| Hello again Well the trick with grabbing a dog by the back of their necks works great! Now when my little baby has something he shouldnt I can get it without getting bit!I know it doesnt hurt him because he is a little on the heavy side and he has a roll of fat there!! Ok I need some more suggestions on another subject! My baby Is TERRIFIED of other animals,But I would really like to get another. Would it be cruel? (He is afraid of a 1lb yorkie pup!!!) |

| No, it wouldn't be cruel. You just need to be sure to introduce them to each other gradually. It will help to socialize your dog a bit with other animals and people before you get another pet. |

| Socializing with other animals is very important but that is certainly one of our shortcomings for Toto! We don't know anyone with a small pet ... and my son't Border Collie HATES her!! My daughter-in-law wanted them to be friends so badly she would try to force them to interact!! I put a quick stop to that!! The Toto really wants to play but the Collie will have nothing to do with her and has snapped at her a few times so I have to watch her like a hawk!! I believe if she were socialized with small animals that she would probably be a little jealous at first but left alone she would soon LOVE having a playmate!!
